PROJECT OVERVIEW
The 'Kenektid Postman' is a uniquely crafted brand product born from the creativity of designer Ilrae Kim. Inspired by the common canvas eco-bag that many people carry around, we designed and produced a crossbody bag that is convenient and lightweight for everyday use. This project, first introduced in New York, encompasses innovative ideas and passion throughout every stage from product inception to brand design and marketing strategy. The name of the product, 'Postman,' embodies the meaning of love and connection, just as a letter written to a loved one is delivered through a mail carrier, connecting people to people. We aim to convey the significance of love and connection to consumers.
‘커넥티드 포스트맨’은 디자이너 김일래의 창의력으로 탄생한 독창적인 브랜드 상품입니다. 많은 사람들이 흔하게 들고다니는 캔버스 에코백에서 착안하여 일상에서 편하고 가볍게 사용할 수 있는 크로스바디 가방을 디자인하고 제작하였으며, 뉴욕에서 최초로 선보인 이 프로젝트는 제품의 탄생부터 브랜드 디자인, 그리고 마케팅 전략까지 모든 과정에서 혁신적인 아이디어와 열정이 담겨있습니다. 상품의 이름 ‘포스트맨’은 사랑하는 사람에게 쓴 편지가 우편배달부를 통해 전달되고 사람과 사람이 연결 되듯이, 사랑과 연결의 의미를 소비자들에게 전달하고자 하는 의미가 담겨있습니다.
